An Important Book you haven’t gotten around to reading: Any excellent new book that helps assess the challenges of global climate change … even if it’s by Al Gore.
The book you most care about having children read: “Italian Folktales” by Italo Calvino. My kids would not tolerate anything like Grimm’s fairy tales; they were too dark and depressing. But there was something playful about the Italian fairy tales that they adored.
